Wrapped around a number

Is anyone else wrapped around seeing a certain milestone or number? I have really gotten myself into a mental block. I have been at 95 lbs loss for awhile. I am SO close to 100. I have decided all this stuff in my head if and when I get to 100 that when I haven't dropped any weight, it is so depressing. And if I have gained (which I did this morning) I just want to go back to bed and sulk. Well, my life doesn't allow me to do that. But, I am depressed and you know what downward spiral that can begin for someone who has always struggled with their weight. One of the main things that I have promised myself is that when I get to 100, I will step it up a notch and exercise more. The first thing that happens when I am depressed ( and I need to be scolded) is I quit logging in to MFP. No wonder I was up today! DUH!
I am going to do it today though. Disappointed or not, I will not go backwards!

    this is what I think of the scale :)


    On a serious note I have been in maintainence within a 5# range and it has made it's way to the higher end......I just keep plugging away and working on getting it back to where I want it to be. Stupid scale fluctuations!!
    Hang in there and good luck.

    Dont` let all the good changes etc,you`ve done distract you from your goal.It gets frustrating when you really want that number.It`s only a number.You are a success .Just try to be patient with yourself and don`t get caught up with this.
    Have a great fri!!
